In the beginning of 2014 I started working with two series, which both carry same kind of theme – but which strongly differ visually from each other. For several years there was a post-it attached to my desk, in which I had written the headline “People on Their Islands”; the post-it itself inspired me to create the series Where the Wind Stopped, but it gave a name to this sister-series of smaller works.

I had started to make the first two images of this series, a girl with a red umbrella, far away at the sea, standing in a small island (Sheltering from the Storm I ja II), already ten years ago, but somehow I just didn’t find a way to finish them. Now, finally the idea broke through and these two pictures also got some new ones next to them. The series will continue in the years following until the final size of the series, 30 pictures, is full.
